Suffolk Coast Walk - Peter Caton - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Suffolk Coast Walk - Peter Caton - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Combining travel writing with a walking guide, Suffolk Coast Walk provides a wonderful insight into this fascinating county and is the companion book to Essex Coast Walk by the same author. Peter Caton explores all 162 miles of Suffolk’s unique coastline, describing the route for fellow walkers, with an engaging narrative that tells of the beauty, history and wildlife of this mysterious and varied coast. The reader is taken up and down Suffolk’s remote creeks and rivers, past sandy beaches and huge expanses of shingle, through nature reserves, seaside resorts and tiny villages. We learn of the county’s abundant wildlife, not just through its famous bird populations but also of equally interesting and less celebrated creatures, and how habitats are managed to balance the needs of nature and mankind. Throughout his journey, Peter uncovers many mysteries and considers the stories behind legends of Anne Boleyn, invading Germans, a half-man half-fish character, UFOs, Crazy Mary and bells tolling beneath the sea. He visits Suffolk’s only island and takes a boat trip to investigate the secret world of Orford Ness. More than 100 colour and black & white photos illustrate the story of the walk and the beauty and atmosphere of county’s remarkable coast. With maps at the start of each chapter, this is a book for those who enjoy a short stroll, a longer ramble or simply wish to follow the coast from the comfort of an armchair.

Essex Coast Walk - Peter Caton - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

When Peter Caton set out to walk the Essex coast he had no idea of the beauty, wildlife and stories that he would find on the way. He takes the reader up and down the many creeks and estuaries of the longest coastline of any English county, through nature reserves, seaside resorts, unspoilt villages, sailing centres and alongside industry past and present. On the way we read of tales of witchcraft, ghosts, smuggling, bigamy and incest. We learn of the county’s varied history – of battles with Vikings, invading Romans bringing elephants, a fort where the only casualty occurred during a cricket match, burning Zeppelins and Jack the Ripper.The book is illustrated with photographs and maps, and the narrative contains a wealth of information, including many little-known facts and stories. With gentle humour to match the coastline’s gentle beauty, the book makes for easy reading. It tells of the solitude of some of the most remote coastal areas in England and of the huge range of wildlife to be found there. In contrast we read of the docks and industry of the Thames, but find that even here there is beauty for those willing to look.The book highlights how climate change may alter our coast and looks at new methods of coping with rising sea levels. It tells us how tiny settlements grew into large holiday resorts and how other villages have remained as unspoilt and isolated communities. The author’s thought-provoking final reflections consider how the coast has changed over the centuries and what its future may be.

A Very British Journey - Iain Chisholm - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

A Very British Journey - Iain Chisholm - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Britain is blessed with remarkable scenery and a wealth of history, and there is no better way to explore it than on foot. Although long distance walking is easy for the young and fit, for others it may not be so. This is a story of how a group of walkers, the majority of whom were in their seventh decade, walked from Hampshire to Iona, and what they discovered about this spectacular island along the way. The book is lavishly illustrated with photographs, most of which were taken during the walk. The walk was accomplished over one week in May every year for 5 years. Timings and routes are detailed and both the human and natural history of the places visited is explored. Starting in Hampshire, the walkers headed northwest, along the Thames, through the Cotswolds and into the Midlands. Then they followed the Pennines through the Peak District, Yorkshire Dales and the Northumbrian hinterland. From Lindisfarne the walkers headed to Scotland, traversing in turn the Borders, Southern Uplands, Glasgow, Western Highlands and over to Iona via Mull. All were amazed at how much ground could be covered and all returned with a much deeper understanding of Britain than when they started.

The Essence of Nature - Roger Homer - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Essence of Nature - Roger Homer - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

A wagtail’s eccentric walk ... a teeming industrial landscape ... the alienation of a “misfit” … Readers can be told about these things, but when the words spring naively from relatively untutored feeling they can share the essence of them, deepening their appreciation of nature. Yet increasingly, this natural instinct is being lost in our rush to adapt to the world we live in. The Essence of Nature is a collection of poems ranging widely over many aspects of nature: landscapes of town and industry, country and sea, weather, animals, and people in a variety of situations and their effect on the author’s feelings and mood.

Ups and Downs - Matthew Bowmer - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Ups and Downs - Matthew Bowmer - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

In the summer of 2022, feeling disillusioned with working life in London and in search of an outdoor challenge, Matthew Bowmer set off alone to walk the Grande Randonnée 10, a 900-kilometre footpath through the French Pyrenees from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. In the first few days it becomes clear this will be no ordinary walk. Each day he navigates the landscape, unsure of where he would sleep, following the path until he wants to stop. The doubt about exactly what he would be confronted with, and the need to improvise on many occasions, is a source of both excitement and apprehension. From 40-degree heat and a failing tent, to sleeping out under the stars and learning first-hand about the Basque sport of pelota, the immersion within the surroundings brings a rich combination of gifts and challenges. And this is just a sign of things to come. Ups and Downs is a humorous, in-depth reflection of Matthew’s expedition where he recounts the geography, people, events, and personal battles he encounters along the way. " A cornucopia of exhilarating adventures, Ups and Downs quarries a Pyrenean landscape very close to my heart. Having lived there on and off for over 35 years this book is so much more than just a travelogue. Matthew Bowmer has dug into it like a wayward archaeologist, excavating both the mundane and the magnificent; the very bond that holds our lives together. " Andrew Kötting
